Coming February 1st. Free Shipping on 6+ bottles.
TASTES: The 2005 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a nuanced wine that illustrates the results of cool, gradual ripening and a deft balance of varietal components. It has a dark garnet color and a complex nose of boysenberry, truffles, wild game, soy, and black pepper. On the palate, the wine has a silky mouthfeel and an elegant, long finish with a slight tannic grip. With proper cellaring it should give drinking pleasure through 2032.
INSIDER SCOOP: Silver Oak’s 'Napa' bottling is always the #1 collector Cabernet sold in America because this is the winery’s flagship bottling. Silver Oak’s annual release party and tasting in Napa is a frenzied event but purchases are severely limited. However, thanks to our close relationship with owners Tim and David Duncan, click on the link above and we can guarantee you up to two cases to be shipped in early February.
PRICING: Good news is that Silver Oak has maintained their current price of $99/bottle for the eleventh consecutive year. While other wineries in Napa have chosen raise new vintage prices and ignore market dynamics, our friends at Silver Oak decided against raising their prices this year! In addition, Porthos will throw in FREE SHIPPING on any orders of 6 or more bottles this vintage.
